Kaw-Liga
Dm
KAW-LIGA, was a wooden Indian standing by the door
Dm
He fell in love with an Indian maid over in the antique store
Dm A7
KAW-LIGA, just stood there and never let it show
Dm
So she could never answer "YES" or "NO"
He always wore his Sunday feathers and held a tomahawk
The maiden wore her beads and braids and hoped someday he'd talk
KAW-LIGA , too stubborn to ever show a sign
Because his heart was made of knotty pine
CHORUS
[ D ]
[ Poor ol' KAW-LIGA, he never got a kiss ]
[ G ]
[ Poor ol' KAW-LIGA, he don't know what he missed ]
[ D A7 ]
[ Is it any wonder that his face is red ]
[ Dm ]
[ KAW-LIGA, that poor ol' wooden head ]
KAW-LIGA, was a lonely Indian never went nowhere
His heart was set on the Indian maiden with the coal black hair
KAW-LIGA, just stood there and never let it show
So she could never answer "YES" or "NO"
Then one day a wealthy customer bought the Indian maid
And took her, oh, so far away, but ol' KAW-LIGA stayed
KAW-LIGA, just stands there as lonely as can be
And wishes he was still an old pine tree
CHORUS
